Story
Tigger is looking for his forever home! He's a great boy just over a year old who's been neutered, micro chipped and he's up to date on all vaccinations. Very sweet and playful with lots of energy - he'd do best in a home with another dog that has a playful temperament. He's great with kids but due to his energy level kids over 10-12 years old would be best. He loves to play with toys and will chase them if you throw them all day! He's being fostered in RI where he's learned recall, walking well on a leash and all other commands. He's house broken and crate trained. His ideal home would be a very active one or possibly someone looking to do agility training, barn hunts, etc. A fenced yard is a must with him so he can run and play safely. He's a great pup looking for a great home - send us an email at savingcarolinadogs@yahoo.com if you'd like to know more about Tigger!

*Sierra is going through heart worm treatment in her foster home* She’s very, very loving, she’s a talker (especially when it’s time to eat). She’s good with people, other dogs, and kids. NOT good with cats. She’s loves to run, but because she’s HW positive we restrict her activity and she loves, loves, loves to cuddle. It is her favorite thing to do. She’s also a hugger. If you’re sitting down, she’ll come to you, wrap her legs around you and literally hug you.

Meet Ruru - Compassion Hold Ruru is in our Compassion Hold program. He will live out whatever time he has left with his foster care provider, Steve. Eight month old Ruru has a severe heart condition. His cardiologist tells us it is likely he will not make it to adulthood. We took Ruru into our Compassion Hold (hospice) program from a local shelter and placed him into a home where he will be loved and spoiled for whatever time he has left.
